This is what I was talking about not seeing, I saw the knockback. It's a 1min unresistable root, with 300 range and 4 sec recast. It was perpetually cast on the main tank, when used in conjunction with the knock back, on a rooted mob... She basically punts your main tank out of range, roots him, and then she turns to fight the next person on aggro. Forcing a constant tank swap, providing a huge challenge in the encounter, how do you cope with those tank/heal swaps on a mob that has such high output DPS.

I would guess her nuke could randomly break the root allowing you to move back up but I definitely recall it still being a huge nuisance to deal with. EDIT - My recollection is clearly not Velious era because only like 2 guilds killed her in Velious. But the root effect was talked about in 2002 and ways to cope with it are also discussed on Allakhazam. So I doubt it was added afterwards... I'll check April 2001 spdats to see if it's in there. However judging by her loot we are dealing with a late 2001/2002 version anyways.

Spell existed in the original Velious spell file.

Fixed, pending update. We also know that her knockback is weaker than it should be and we are looking into that.
